Inside the Lab #17: Miss Me?
“So are you just going to pretend like you didn’t go missing for a couple of months?!”… Yes. But in all seriousness… the reason why I paused updates was because I believed the quality of the updates was on the decline. Timelines kept shifting, unexpected bumps in the road and other externalities meant that some weeks I would rush these updates. Making blanket, non-specific statements about what I got up to during the week just to make sure I delivered something on time. This didn’t provide an...

Inside the Lab #15: Nexus
Hey fam 👋🏾 Whoop whoop! We are back to normal programming. There was a small setback last week which was annoying on a personal level. I had a timeline that I wanted to work towards (and had told people about), and not hitting those targets was frustrating. However, going back to the drawing board did allow me to refocus on the things needed to make our initial launch a success. The team have since been working towards our realigned goals. Exciting times ahead! Right. Let’s jump in. What ha...

Inside the Lab #14: Refactoring
Hey fam 👋🏾 This one is going to be a little different. No smart spiel here… we have decided to halt all onboarding and refactor the MVP. We want our initial scrappy product to align with our mission and core values. At its core we want to empower professionals to build and monetise their reputation by connecting talent with companies. If that’s the case, let’s build the simplest product that aligns with that mission. A long list of product features is great (and exciting to ideate and build...

Inside the Lab #13: Don't Panic
Hey fam 👋🏾 Yes. I know I missed a week. Don’t panic. There’s no need to worry. Last weekend was really busy with wedding prep. No. Not my own, but my friends. It was a great and I had a good time; thanks for asking. After a short break, I am back writing, updating and sharing with you all. The title also serves as a reminder to myself. A reminder to keep a cool and level head when things inevitably go wrong at no fault of my own. This also applies for situations that I don’t have any contro...
